“Satellites and space stations could soon knock missiles out and make ICBM’s obsolete”
IMO, they have been obsolete for decades. The orbital phase makes ICBMs sitting ducks.
We know every launch for the past ~30 years can be detected and tracked by satellite. It’s not that much of a stretch to assume we can also point and shoot lasers at what we are tracking.
Tracking a 28 inch by 18 inch stealth warhead is extremely difficult.

Also there are decoys and countermeasures. LOTS of decoys and countermeasures. (prior life was space combat and those decoys and countermeasures)
A laser type weapon would not be all that effective against satellites, you have to have a hell of a lot of power and the capability to keep it focused and aimed for a pretty long time.
Kinetic weapons would be much more efficient, something like a space grenade.
